Frequently Asked Questions

  • The timeline can vary, but in our area, it typically takes 3-4 months from the initial home search to closing. We'll guide you through each step, including getting pre-approved, viewing homes, making an offer, negotiating, inspections, appraisals, and coordinating with banks and attorneys. Our goal is to make this complex process as smooth and efficient as possible.

  • Pricing your home correctly is crucial for maximizing interest and proceeds. We use comparative market analysis of recently sold homes in your area with similar features. We also evaluate pricing trends, condition, location, and other factors specific to your property. Our expertise ensures your home is priced competitively to attract buyers.

  • While we primarily serve Queens, Brooklyn and Long Island, we have also assisted buyers and sellers in the Bronx, Westchester and beyond. Our expansive local market knowledge, coupled with our nationwide realtor network, allows us to be a resource for real estate needs anywhere in the country.

  • The timeline can vary, but we generally see two key phases in the sales process. First, accepting an offer: With our proactive marketing strategies and skilled pricing, many of our listings go into contract within 2-4 weeks of hitting the market.

    However, some situations may require a more aggressive approach to facilitate a quicker sale, if needed.

    Once an offer is accepted, the second phase is the 2-3 month period it typically takes for the buyer's mortgage approval, title searches, inspections and other closing requirements. During this time, our team expertly handles any potential hiccups to keep the transaction moving forward smoothly.

    Additionally, we understand some clients may need to align the closing timeline with school calendars, job relocations or other events. In those cases, we can negotiate an amenable closing period as part of the offer terms. Our flexibility allows us to secure a great offer now with a delayed closing to meet your needs.

    No matter your desired timing, we provide detailed market analysis, frequent updates and skilled negotiation every step of the way. Our goal is facilitating an efficient, optimal sale, whether that means expediting the process or extending it based on your unique situation.

    You can count on us to deliver a smooth, timely transaction.
